Aquatec Shortlisted for Best Small Company Award

Aquatec has been shortlisted for the prestigious Subsea Expo Awards 2022 and is a finalist in the Best Small Company category. The awards ceremony, organised by the Global Underwater Hub, will take place on February 23, 2022, at P&J Live in Aberdeen.

The Subsea Expo Awards, which celebrate the companies and individuals leading the way in the UK’s £8billion underwater industry, have already recognised Aquatec in 2020 by shortlisting one of its lead engineers in the Emerging Young Talent category.

This year, Aquatec has been considered for its excellence in overall company performance within the subsea sector. Key aspects such as commercial performance, business plan, products and services, long-term vision and strategy, strong leadership culture, commitment to its supply chain, well-established health, safety and environmental policies, and general market perception were crucial in shortlisting for this important industry recognition.

Neil Gordon, chief executive of the Global Underwater Hub, said:

“As we continue to navigate the pandemic and deliver the energy transition, it seems more important than ever for us to celebrate and recognise our industry’s achievements during these unprecedented times.“

Andy Smerdon, CEO of Aquatec, commented on the achievement:

“This acknowledgement is an excellent way for Aquatec to begin its fourth decade of subsea innovation. Shortlisting for this award, along with other great companies, is a fantastic recognition of the capabilities and future potential of Aquatec as it embarks on an ambitious new growth phase, with its most robust ever technology portfolio both in production and in development.”
